Using Win32::OLE you have access to the MS object models.

These are the steps I took to try to answer your question:

  1. Open Excel
  2. Open Visual Basic in the Developer tab
  3. Hit F1
  4. Search "Chart"
  5. Click "Chart Object Members"
  6. Click "Axes"
  7. Search "Axis"
  8. Click "Axis Object Members"
  9. Click "MinimumScale"

Now you know how to get the chart object, get the x-axis, set the minimum value to 0.

Update: it looks like you want to set the Position property of the DisplayUnitLabel where you can specify a custom position. However you use the word "labels" but I'm not sure if you mean Title. I misread your post initially, it's pretty confusing.
